Use-of-Force Continuum:
.
Most law enforcement agencies have policies that guide their use of force. These policies describe a escalating series of actions an officer may take to resolve a situation. This continuum generally has many levels, and officers are instructed to respond with a level of force appropriate to the situation at hand . . .
.
Less-Lethal Methods — Officers use less-lethal technologies to gain control of a situation.
.
Blunt impact. Officers may use a baton or projectile to immobilize a combative person.
Chemical. Officers may use chemical sprays or projectiles embedded with chemicals to restrain an individual (e.g., pepper spray).
Conducted Energy Devices (CEDs). Officers may use CEDs to immobilize an individual. CEDs discharge a high-voltage, low-amperage jolt of electricity at a distance.

How about Pepper Spray or Taser?
.
And frankly filming Police in a public place is one of our only remaining protections against a potential Police State.

On or about 1 p.m. a . . .
Male, Female, or Transgender…
who appeared to be hispanic, caucasion, black, asian or middle eastern
approximately 15-90 years old
with black, brown, gray or blonde hair
shot and killed someone . . .

This society is Soooooooo messed up. I am not so sure it will ever recover.

...but they will be sure to fix the wording so as its "appropriate" to say:
TEA party member
Republican
Caucasian (just not Mongaloid or Negroid)
Redneck (it will be by accident)
Pro-life
NRA associate
Gated Community resident
Uptowner (also referred to as North side of the tracks)
Non-union

This is what THE LIBS HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR. If you think voter fraud was bad before . . .

. . . hang on.

And frankly if you really want the REALITY of all of this. The Supreme court is a relic which only

changes when someone dies. LIFE TIME APPOINTMENTS of any Judge should be outlawed.

No wonder this Country is going backwards . . . old Politicians and old Judges are at the helm.

When we attended the first Tea Party “march” in Washington D.C. DHS vehicles were there also.

This administration thinks anything and everything is a Homeland Security issue.

Our Government is out of control. Has been for many years. We need to CUT THEIR BUDGETS

(including borrowing capability) so we can make them small enough again that they will once again
.
be a GOVERNMENT FOR THE PEOPLE.

This man has no gray mass left between his ears.

How about people that believe that Government has a purpose.

This purpose was never intended to achieve agenda driven programs and total control of the people.

This however, is what Mr. Reid and many other Washington Politicians live for.

What? NO PERMITS?

This is all a dream. If they had guns THEY MUST HAVE HAD PERMITS.

Gun Control laws WILL NEVER control criminals. Only law abiding citizens.

hey ENCINOM
Can you show us one murder in the US last year where an NRA member was responsible?
The MSM lied ,and claimed Adam Lanza was a member, but even the huffpo had to come back and back track those statements.
Do you know that our murder rates are tied to our welfare population, food stamp receivers, and those living in public housing?
Black americans are 12.5% of the total US population and did 1/2 of all murders last year. they were also 1/2 of the murder victims in the US. If we could lower the black murder rates to the same as whites, we would lower the national murder per capita rate by almost 40% and save a whole lot of black lives. I want to save black lives, but ENCINOM does not, and he does not want Americans knowing these statistics.
Of all murders done in the US last year, less than 4% were done with a rifle. ENCINOM, why do you, Feinstein, and Obama want my rifle so bad?
America owns 88 guns per 100 people, but there are 27 nations with higher murder rates. Honduras owns 6.6 guns per 100 people and they lead the world in murder. Less guns does not mean less murder.
What Obama wants is a national gun registry. Nations that came up with a gun registry later confiscated guns.
Politicians who want gun control, also desire an economy that mirrors socialism. In world history, socialist also took away guns, then murdered millions of their own people (Mao, Castro, Hitler, Stalin…)

@Rangerskippy,
I just wanted to commend you on your post. I don't believe I've commented on The Blaze before but I read it several times a day. I always find your replies thoughtful & well written. There are only ever a handful of commenters who actually back up their posts with facts. I just wanted to thank you for that. It's a shame that the majority of the left can't see past their talking points & agendas to actually listen to the facts.
Keep up the good work!

Oh come on...how can you only lay blame on the NRA, when there is Bush and global warming!?

I just knew that guns were being used to set them off. This confirms that the gun had a silencer on it when they shot the bombs to set them off. Shame on the NRA for killing and injuring all those people in Boston.

What's with this exercise in futility of presenting a point based in reason, when the other person is a liberal? For Heaven's sake man, a liberal is incapable of seeing or even processing reason; they're simply not wired that way, anymore than a donkey is wired in reason. Liberals honestly have a connector missing in that respect. Now a position based on emotion, watch out, that's something they can sink their teeth into and pontificate on all day...

Okay now . . .
.
Let me see how well our laws are working.
.
It is the opinion of the courts that WHEN IN PUBLIC, A CITIZEN has no expectation of privacy. So it is OKAY TO FILM US.
.
However when it comes to citizens (Policemen) interviewing, arresting, detaining other citizens
.
THEY HAVE A RIGHT to not have their actions photographed? This is crap.
.
I will give them their privacy in the interrogation room, BUT IN PUBLIC is the ABSOLUTE time that we
.
should use video. No video…..no proof of Police abuse of our rights.
.
We need to lessen the effect of what is a growing Gustapo State.
.

Police have become corrupt. They are becoming nothing more that income generators that write nonsense tickets to finance budgets to buy nicer cruisers and hire more officers. Where I live it was posted in the local paper that 50% of the proceeds from all citations and tickets written go DIRECTLY into the officers pension. Conflict of interest. When you need their help it takes 45 minutes to respond. When you are driving without your seat belt the response is immediate, swift and expensive. They are supposed to be there to "Serve and Protect" - NEITHER of which they do anymore. They harass innocent people and cost them money. Arm and train the citizens to protect themselves and limit the police force to ONLY responding to violent crimes. No more stupid tickets to build a bigger courthouse...

This is a tough one to answer.
.
On the surface it would seem logical. That is to say, it would cut off opportunities for other explosive devices to be detonated by the use of a cell phone.
.
HOWEVER……ON THE OTHER HAND.
.
If someone were to see the perpetrator leaving the scene, they would be unable to make a call to law enforcement.
.

A tax hike would not help us deal with it either.
Having a president who is friends with bomb blowing terrorists does not make a whole lot of sense either.
If we would call things like they are, and come to the realization that Islam is not peaceful, and spend more time looking for who is more likely the terrorist, than frisking 80 year old ladies in the airport line that are wearing a depends.

The_Jerk responded:

Rangerskippy, if we were really calling things like they are, we would never have involved ourselves in the affairs of the Middle East. Fact is, Truman injected America into the Middle East when he went against the advice of his State Department, for selfish political reasons, and backed a small minority in Israel. Fact is, in 1953 we were the nation who attacked Iran's democracy. That's real history. That's telling it like it really was.

Let us not forget that The western Allies withdrew from Iran after the end of the war. The Soviet Union remained and sponsored two "People's Democratic Republic"s within Iran's borders. The resulting crisis was resolved through diplomatic efforts in the new United Nations and US support for the Iranian army to reassert control over the breakaway areas.

Hi Ranger. Let's go back further to 705 A.D. when conquering armies of Islam besieged Jerusalem and built the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount of Israel. An act of war and desecration that was met with an earthquake (Act of God?) which completely destroyed it. It was rebuilt again in 754 and 780 and another earthquake destroyed it in 1033. The Christian Crusades (1095-1291) were an attempt to free Israel and Europe from the insidious COLONIZATION of Islam and this WAR has been going on for centuries. It will never stop. Because Israel has been fighting Syria (Assyria), Iraq (Babylonia), Iran (Persians), Hezbollah (Lebanon/Phillistines), Jordan (Ammanites), for THOUSANDS of years. To start with Truman is sheer ignorance. Sorry Jerk. I do love you honey. You my favorite jerk. Love, Liz

Shorelineliz: "Let’s go back further to 705 A.D. when conquering armies of Islam besieged Jerusalem and built the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount of Israel."
This is the problem. You think that just because you say it, that it must be true. There was no place called Israel after 722 B.C.. "B.C." is before Christ. That would be about 1400 years before your claim that their mosque was built in Israel.
Can we not stop with the incessant, factless, statements?

shorelineliz responded:

@Jerk:
Hi honey. Are you getting upset again? Now sweetie. Calm down. Let me, a Jewess, tell you about my history okay? So. Here it goes.
The history of the Jews in the Land of Israel refers to the history of the Jewish people in Eretz Yisrael. The first appearance of the name "Israel" in the historic record is an Egyptian inscription of c.1200 BCE which speaks of an ethnic group located in the northern part of the central highlands between the Mediterranean and the Jordan valley and south of Mount Carmel. The term "Land of Israel" is found in the Hebrew Bible. During the biblical period, two kingdoms occupied the highland zone, the kingdom of Israel in the north and, somewhat later to emerge, the kingdom of Judah in the south: Israel was conquered c.722 BCE, and Judah c.586 BCE. Later, in 165 BCE, the Jewish Hasmonean Kingdom kingdom was established. It lasted 99 years and was destroyed after the Romans captured Jerusalem in 66 BCE.
So: Judea/Israel was under Roman occupation until 70 AD when Jerusalem was sacked.
So honey, your 755 BC date is just wrong. It's way off the mark.
Now listen. My sweet jerk. Do what I do. Just start your cocktail hour now. Have a big glass of some libation, I prefer gin and tonic with lime, and grill yourself a big steak and just relax. Okay? Then your anti-semitism will die down. Okay?
Just for the record sweetie. Us Jews don't let others tell us about the history of our people or our family or our relatives. Bad tast

They should be PROSECUTED and IMPRISONED just as they would do to other citizens.

BUT WAIT . . . are they actually citizens? They seem to live under a different set of laws.

"Many States are doing what the FEDS want them to do."
Well yes, all the progressive Blue States are falling in line behind the POTUS. Have any conservative Red States joined the Obama bandwagon? It really does not matter. Since the Campaigner-in-Chief was elected is agenda has been to fundamentally change the United States and redistribute the wealth… Ask Joe-the-Plumber. After the 2014 mid-term elections, Obama will have his way and possible be reelected for a 3rd term.
